Nomination: Most misrepresentation, ever

Media Matters has, on previous occasions, left me dumbfounded in their dishonesty.

But today, they deserve a special award for duping their own people.

Currently, this timeline is being used by liberals to argue that Fox News was instrumental in the firing of Sherrod by airing the edited video.
There's only one problem with that. Media Matters own timeline shows that Fox did not air the video until after Sherrod resigned.

So why is their confusion? Well, its like this: Media Matters is using the FoxNation website (an electronic BBS) and making it the equivalent of Fox News coverage.

You don't have to believe me. Go visit the timeline for yourself. See what impression you are left with. Then delve into the details of it.
